You've taken me back to when I started wearing slightly lower rise jeans, maybe 2" below my waist, and discovered I needed different underwear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958613 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 14:52:16 +0000 Janet 1958613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL at high and wide! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958598 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 13:45:09 +0000 bj1111 1958598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ladypainter, snap!

I rather prefer low-rise underwear that just stay out of the way, regardless of how high the waist is on my pants. It seems quite a few folks are re-embracing the bodysuit, which I suppose is one way to prevent the peekaboo waistband... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958575 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 13:03:10 +0000 Helena 1958575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe you'll start a trend - sort of the counterpoint to the 'thong sticking out of your low-risers' trends of the early 00s! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958562 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 12:21:49 +0000 Janet 1958562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL! Thanks for sharing, it's good to know we all have fashion fail moments, even someone as fab as you!&nbsp;</p> <p>But this just gives me one more reason to keep my promise to my husband that I will never wear granny panties!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958561 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 12:07:31 +0000 Daisy Avalin 1958561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have some 'full cover' knickers that definitely show above the waistband of my work trousers. &nbsp;I figure it's something to do with a. my work trousers (as with the majority of my trousers atm - I seem to have settled clothing size in between two sizes) being both mid-rise and 1/2 size too big, and b.'full cover' knickers sitting at or above my navel!</p> <p>Of course, I either wear my tees tucked in or a longline cami under untucked/short tees as applicable anyway since I dislike drafts up my back, so my knickers aren't generally visible! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958555 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 11:44:18 +0000 Molly Mac 1958555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, Hanky Panky has been making beautiful high waist lace underwear in the US for years.

I heard today that Europe is way ahead of the US in stores offering lace high waisted undies that do some light control. My traveling friend said she would have bought the whole store had she realized how fab these undies were. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958507 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 05:14:06 +0000 Gigi 1958507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! I gave up my granny pants a long time ago for this very reason...undies peeking out over the top of a waistband are definitely not fab! I do know that some bloggers swear by them for tummy control, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958492 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 03:01:18 +0000 K.M. 1958492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>funny! <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>This reminds me of a trend from the early 2000s (which I didn't like and never wore), when some people would wear very low-rise pants with high-rise thongs intentionally so the thong straps and triangle-shaped back would show. On purpose. I didn't like how it looked at all and I also imagine it must have felt so uncomfortable! <br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958488 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 02:48:04 +0000 karen13 1958488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my!

Imagine that walking around with padding sticking out from the sides or behind! Talk about items from different eras clashing (i.e. low waist jeans from the 2000's + 2018 high waist undies).&nbsp;<br />Jokes aside, your comment highlights something interesting: not only is it the waist on bottoms that have risen, but also the <i>hem on tops</i> have cropped to the point of grazing the waist, a very cute look as long as your arms are down (and your undies are tucked in) (and your waist isn't tired).&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958465 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 02:06:57 +0000 ladypainter 1958465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bj111–<br /> Hahahahah!<br /> Actually, I have some Hanes for Her granny pants that create that problem </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-fail-1#post-1958462 Fri, 21 Sep 2018 02:00:45 +0000 Anonymous 1958462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hahahaha.

I am very envious of folk who can pull off this high-waisted pants/crop top trend. Hopefully it wasn't too terrible. </p>
